Yo Pat’s come a long way from the early days, his interview skills are sharp, great questions doesn’t step on responses anymore, doesn’t answer his own questions, helps the guests feel comfortable. Love to see it

[@seanheany444]

60 days sober here. I've never played in the NFL, but I think there's a good argument sobriety is as hard as that. Coming to the realization and then beating it is so tough. Huge SHAHT OUT Mr Maxx Crosby

[@TJF83]

As someone going through sobriety that comment the Vegas can be anywhere really resonates with me.

[@seanheany444]

@@TJF83 dude anywhere. There's a will there's a way.

[@seanheany444]

@@TJF83 but my dude huge SHAHT OUT to you for tackling this beast we have to deal with. Like Mr Maxx said, we're not normal people we can't just have one drink and chill. Being a man enough to see that and deal with that is a mental fortitude the rest of the world really needs.

[@TJF83]

@@seanheany444 sobriety is hard. I'm 2+ years and when things get rough I still want to blow off my problems and go get wasted. But I know my problems will still be there when I sober up. So I'm just keeping my head to the grind. Wish you the best and making the decision to sober up has already put you on the right track.

[@mikemilitello9610]

Congrats be proud! Its a fight with hell. But is possible. ONE DAY AT A TIME. KEEP IT UP.

[@deantx88]

I love how AJ smirks every time he hears Pat say "progrum" in an interview 😂

Wouldn’t be a raiders video without mcafee mentioning Carr’s groin 🤣

Gonna have to bring in Carr

[@AJ_Ol]

No coincidence him and Waller started balling after they ditched their old lives. Rooting for both of those guys and hope they can set an example for the young Raider players.

[@BladeMcCloud]

They certainly need it, the way last season went.

As someone who is beating their addiction, it's so cool and inspiring to see those two be open about their struggles and show the rest of us there is hope

This dude is amazing. Players like this are ones people can connect to. We know people like Max we grew up with people that we knew could do big things but have it tough. He’s a real story that we can relate to.

[@MrBackspace4848]

i hope this dude runs his whole career in Vegas!!

[@rogertafolla8389]

I’m a Raiders fan and I’m an even bigger Maxx Crosby fan. Knowing his story and him becoming the Raiders biggest defensive star since Khalil Mack makes him so easy to root for.

[@sleepyhead8681]

His hustle and playing hard in the pro bowl makes me lile him more. Great leader for the defence.

[@outdoorsanimalsandmusic3014]

Huge difference between him and Mack. Crosby wanted to stay a raider. Mack knew he wanted out before the season started the year he got traded. Now he’s chasing the money.

[@josephhemze]

I am a Chargers fan. I despise the Raiders. I have been clean 3 years. I love Crosby and his story. Spread the word man. Sobriety is first.

[@SSTIXX-lc9qd]

Someone else who is just a tank in person is Kolton Miller the LT for the Raiders

[@akumacode]

He lives the Commitment to Excellence. Love this guy

[@Jacob-gv1yj]

Love that max actually tried during the pro bowl. Anybody bitching about guys that tried shouldnt be in the game.

[@JANIKOWSKII]

Right that game used to mean sum

[@kyledamron]

My absolute favorite current player (all time favorite is Stabler) liked him when I saw his college highlights after the draft, loved him when he tattooed the shield on his body before he ever played a game because he wanted to be a Raider.

[@joshschwerin4169]

Maxx is amazing and he's the type of tough gritty player that would make the "All-Madden Team"

[@huntinggeckos7065]

Truly an inspiration

Great interview Pat 👍🏽

[@huntinggeckos7065]

Pat and AJ are great interviewers!

[@SanjitT]

Maxx Crosby a Superstar!!!

[@Icarus811]

Couldn't agree more. He's still underrated and underappreciated too. I feel that most NFL fans wouldn't name him in the top 10 of DE in the league even tho he is one of the best. People look at sacks as being what makes you the best at that position when that's far from the truth. Maxx doesn't put up huge sack numbers but he makes it up in everything else. Be it QB hurries, hits and just straight up pressure. Hes always around the QB and once he gets to the QB more he's going to become the best DE in the league. He does need to improve on the run but it sounds like from this interview he's working harder than most and that will come. So other than that getting those huge sack numbers is his only weakness sorta.10,12,15 are starting this coming season. RN4L let's go Raiders Maxx you're a superstar and don't let anyone tell you differently.

[@BrandonJ94]

Glad he’s a raider! Always balling out, no matter the situation

[@s000162017]

As a fellow late bloomer, I think if yer good enough & put in the extra work, it's actually a huge benefit. As a freshman who played varsity (which as against the rules which clearly got bent a bit for me & it woulda been unfair to other jv teams) in multiple sports, I feel like after having to learn how to dominate despite being FAR too small, that once u grow into yer body (like even took me till college), it's like a new superpower u unlocked.
